less exhaust restriction will increase the volume of the pops n bangs, but with less restriction comes louder volume

this car wont pop n bang on decel with a factory tune. If you downshift just right with a manual car, you can get a pop or two even with the stock exhaust(although its heavily muffled)

catless headers and a catless frontpipe will increase the "strength" of said pops n bangs and may add a few into the mix at random areas in the rpm range. your cats are the most restrictive parts of the exhaust system, followed by the rear most muffler
I know the AWE touring is not subtle but it seems to do the pops and bangs very well.
